10 greatest Raw moments in history

#4 Austin's beer bath

This is still remembered as one of the most iconic moments in WWE history. This took place on an episode of RAW in 1998 during The Rock’s segment. At that time, The Rock was known as ‘The Corporate Champion’. Stone Cold Steve Austin’s stock was rising and he was one of the hottest stars in the company.

Both these two men were scheduled to meet at WrestleMania 15. Just one week before WrestleMania, Austin drove down to the ring in a beer truck almost taking down the titantron. He then began to spray everyone in sight with beer. It was so shocking and hilarious all at once. My personal favorite part was when Vince McMahon was feigning swimming strokes in a pool of beer. Moments like these are why the Rattlesnake is still loved by wrestling fans to this day.

If ever given a chance to change a storyline, Sunil would have booked Roman Reigns to end The Undertaker’s WrestleMania streak instead of Brock Lesnar. According to him, The Tribal Chief needed the victory more than Brock Lesnar, as the latter was already an established performer when he defeated ‘Taker. He would’ve also made that as Taker’s final match.
